Cool, post pictures of the other stuff you are wearing. I have some older equipment, stuff I inherited from father/grandfather that one day will get restored to former glory. I dig old Omega stuff (though I'm not sure why).

This. I have never found an existing house that I really like, because everyone builds a house with a garage. I want a garage with a living space attached.

Priorities.

It's funny, I have a request in at the shop that serviced this watch, that if any stainless Omega with sub-seconds comes in on consignment, they will call me first.

This is the front side of the movement pic. I don't know much beyond it's a Gruen, the movement is marked 422, and it's somewhere around late 1940s to early-mid 1950s. I originally thought 60s, but I learned that Gruen was done by 1958(?).

I just bought it because I like sub-seconds. And it was cheap. However service is expensive, hence me looking into watchmaking. They did regulate it down to ~+8sec/day though, which is pretty damn good (~1min fast/week).

Yea, I want a house with a large garage/hanger/runway in the back yard. Oh hell, let's face it I want John Travolta's Florida home...

Headed to the beach in two weeks and I'm the leanest I've ever been in my life ( ͡º ͜ʖ ͡º). Now if only I could roll up in a BRZ....

What the fuck did you just fucking say about my FR-S, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Racecar Driver Academy, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret street races in New Orleans, and I have over 300 confirmed wins. I am trained in gorilla racing and I’m the top drifter in the entire US. You are nothing to me but just another victim. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of racers across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can beat you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my daily driver. Not only am I extensively trained in drift driving, but I have access to the entire arsenal of my garage and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the starting line, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo
